Make the random item more meaningful: If you are going for clothes, gadgets, tools or the type of stuff you see on gift guides at this time of year, add on a related experience to make it more meaningful. Example, if you get them a pasta maker, include a pasta cookbook or pasta making class to do together.(Unsplash/Anastasia Anastasia)

Make memories together: If they already have everything or don't want more "stuff" go for an experience gift instead. Do something you've both never tried, or something relating to their hobbies/interests, or gift them an experience for an upcoming vacation.(Unsplash/Carrie Borden)
